What does glycolysis breakdown?
Metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate and a small amount of ATP anaerobicly
During cellular respiration what is produced?
Cellular respiration produces ATP from the breakdown of glucose. ATP, NADH, and FADH2 are produced in Glycolysis. NADH and ATP are produced in the Krebs cycle. And 32 ATP and water are produced in the Electron Transport Chain. The first stage of respiration, glycolysis, occurs in the cytoplasm. The later stages occur in the mitochondria.
What are the differences between anaerobic and aerobic breakdown of glucose?
Aerobic break down of glucose occurs in the presence of oxygen while oxygen is limited during the anaerobic process. Both processes lead to production of energy although aerobic breakdown releases a higher amount of energy than the anaerobic breakdown.
Name the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood?
Insulin is the main regulator of blood glucose.
What is the maximum amount of ATP produced from a single molecule of glucose that is fermented?
Theoretically NADH produces a maximum of 3 ATPs and FADH2 produces a maximum of 2 ATPs. However in reality the numbers are closer to 2.5 and 1.5 respectively due to protons leaking across the inner membrane.
What is the amount of ethanol produced from 1kg of glucose?
1kg of glucose produce 0.5kg of ethanol

How many molecules of ATP are produced by the entire breakdown of glucose?
I think that it is Mitochondria...but im not sure. The first stages in the breakdown of glucose occur in the cytoplasm of the cell. These reactions do not use oxygen and only a small amount of energy is converted to ATP. Much more energy is released in the second stage which does take place in the mitochondria. This is the stage which uses oxygen.
What are the differences between anaerobic and aerobic breakdown of glucose?
Aerobic break down of glucose occurs in the presence of oxygen while oxygen is limited during the anaerobic process. Both processes lead to production of energy although aerobic breakdown releases a higher amount of energy than the anaerobic breakdown.
Why is that it would take a lot of time to breakdown a molecule?
A huge amount of energy is needed for this process which is not easily produced. Hence it takes time.
The type of energy released when glucose is broken down?
The process of the breakdown of glucose to release energy happens in two different ways. One of them is called the citric cycle and yeilds the largest amount of energy, and the other is the lactic acid cycle which works when the oxygen supply is low.
What are the stages of Cellular respiration.?
The Stages of Cellular Respiration 1. Glucose is converted to pyruvate producing a small amount of ATP and NADH. 2. When oxygen is present, pyruvate and NADH are used to make a large amount of ATP. When oxygen isn't present, pyruvate is converted to either lactate or ethanol and carbon dioxide. In Stage One, the breakdown of glucose happens, with glycolysis. In Stage Two, ATP is produced. Stage one is called the Calvin cycle, and stage two is called the Krebs cycle. For more information, go to http://Biology.about.com/od/cellularprocesses/a/cellrespiration.htm
Does anaerobic respiration involve the breakdown of nitrate?
No, both aerobic and anaerobic respiration involves the breakdown of (usually) glucose. However, anaerobic glucose is simply converted directly into lactic acid, while aerobic respiration gives time for glucose to be completely broken down into acetyl-coA and filtered through the Krebs cycle. Therefore, to get the same amount of energy, anaeorbic respiration has to use a lot more molecles of glucose. Other sources of energy are fats and proteins.
How many atps are produced in alcohol fermentation?
The total amount of ATP produced during fermentation is 2 for every glucose molecule.
Does a glucose test strip measure the amount of glucose or just presence of glucose?
Just the presence of glucose Just the presence of glucose
If you have the same amount of glucose and a tryglycerol (composed of lauric acid) which one will produced more energy or ATP Show your computation to justify your answer. Assume you have 3.5 moles of each?
